Ingredients

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower
  • 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp. garlic granules
  • 1 tsp. onion granules
  • ½ tsp. paprika
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    An oven temperature display panel set to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Gather and measure your ingredients.
    A bowl of small cauliflower pieces next to several small bowls of spices and oil.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, spices and oil.
    Spices and oil added to raw cauliflower bits in a white mixing bowl.
  • Stir well to coat the cauliflower in the spices as evenly as possible.
    Seasoned, raw cauliflower mixed with spices in a mixing bowl.
  • Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy, tossing at least once halfway through cooking.
    Raw bits of seasoned cauliflower spread out over two sheet pans or roasting.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Add additional seasoning if you wish. I added extra nutritional yeast and it was delicious.
